Have I got it wrong that the pedestrian stepped off the pavement and into the path of a cycle being ridden on the road? I know that the facts are somewhat irrelevant in an emotional discussion like this, and often completely ignored when reported by the scandal rags, but I do like to consider the details.
Yes, cyclist have a duty of care towards other road users, but the same is true, no matter how much the Daily Heil readership would like it not to be, of other road users to cyclist. Yes, I do count a pedestrian as an other road user.
I’ll be back under my bridge should you want me.
